Mrs. Mondello, played by Madge Blake
Margaret Mondello is a nervous, exasperated parent, whose husband is so perennially out-of-town on business, the phrase "If your father were home . . ." comes out of her mouth, at some point, in almost every episode in which she appears. Mrs. Mondello sometimes takes Larry to Beaver's father for discipline when Mr. Mondello is away. Larry's father makes one brief appearance, however; he is seen talking to Larry backstage in the second season episode, "School Play". Larry has older siblings, including a married brother and an unmarried sister who lives at home. In one episode, Mrs. Mondello catches Larry reading his sister's diary. Reports from various characters on the show indicate Larry's homelife is one of "hollering" and physical punishments.
